    Hi All,
    Bought myself a Scytek Galaxy 5000 remote start/alarm for my 1997 Honda
    Accord ES 2.0i 4cyl. This is a United Kingdom spec - right hand drive.

    I am after installation instructions eg wire colours and where to
    locate them on the Accord. Any help from anybody succesfully installing
    this alarm or similar would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Chris

    I don't have my wiring charts handy any longer (been out of that biz for
    many years), but just about all of the wires can be found easily with a
    digital multimeter. All, except for those I'm about to list, can be found
    on the main wire loom coming down from the steering column...

    Locks-Drivers side kick panel. Negative polarity. IIRC, light blue and
    white.

    Parking Lights-From switch, IIRC brown

    Tach-Smaller of 2 wires coming from coil. Tick to probing that wire is put
    DMM in AC Voltage mode. Attach positive lead to positive terminal on
    battery, Probe suspected Tach wire with negative lead. DMM will now show
    approximate vehicle RPM in 100's

    You probably don't want to spring for the factory service manual for
    this one job (besides, I don't know where to get them in the UK). The
    Haynes manuals usually have decent wiring diagrams with wire colors etc.
    Amazon has it for about 10 quid, see http://tinyurl.com/4uyyr
